Canadians are clearly waiting for rates to drop further before moving.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">The Bank of Canada has reduced its rate by 75 basis points since June from 5 per cent to 4.25 per cent. The cuts have brought some relief to Canadians renewing their mortgages, but failed to significantly revive the country\u2019s stalling housing market.<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">Nationally, home sales increased slightly in September but new listings grew faster, leaving a surplus of properties on the market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking at September\u2019s ho-hum housing figures, it feels like we\u2019re in that moment just before a starter pistol goes off,\u201d said Clay Jarvis, a spokesperson at personal finance company, NerdWallet. \u201cThe market\u2019s loaded with new listings, but buyers still aren\u2019t ready to run headlong into gigantic mortgages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">They could be waiting for some time. Most of Canada\u2019s big banks don\u2019t expect the rate to fall below 3 per cent until the first quarter of 2025 or later, with the Bank of Nova Scotia forecasting a 3 per cent rate at the end of next year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"js-widget-content article-content__widget-group article-content__widget-group--content-slot22 article-content__widget-group--newsletter-slot\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-widget__new-story-page fp-execsummary background--primary-light-gradient\" aria-labelledby=\"FinancialPostPosthaste6316204467557236847984546324414464\" data-account-id=\"b9d3df2fccd108b5eff3c44f573b2cd6\" data-aqa=\"widget-newsletter\" data-newsletter=\"single\" data-newsletter-component=\"\" data-target-list=\"FP_ExecSummary\" data-widget=\"newsletter\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-new-story-page-template\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-widget__header__new-story-page\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-widget__banner__new-story-page\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Posthaste\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/dcs-static.gprod.postmedia.digital\/17.2.2\/websites\/images\/newsletters\/icon-fp-posthaste.svg\"\/><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Posthaste<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-widget__text__new-story-page\">Breaking business news, incisive views, must-reads and market signals.
